The main attraction for players are likely the new loot boxes available during the event. In these boxes, apart from the usual loot, there may be one or more items from the special Christmas set, which is only available during this time. The loot boxes can be earned as usual in various game modes (Arcade is particularly rewarding) or purchased directly for real Euros in the shop. A complete list of all new skins will be available for you tomorrow morning.
Also new is the special game mode “Mei’s Snowball Fight”. As a temporary brawl, both teams have only Mei to choose from. However, she cannot use her normal attacks, but can only throw a snowball. This only has one shot before it needs to be recharged at a snow pile. The Ice Wall and Ice Block are still available. The ultimate has a special function – when activated, it allows the player to fire an unlimited number of snowballs for a short time. As each player only has one life per round, it often leads to exciting duels! However, this mode should not be taken too seriously.
All players have until January 2, 2017, to secure the new skins, emotes, and highlight intros, as the event will end then.
In the trailer, you can see the new features of the new Import/Export DLC for GTA 5 Online. We also have an overview of the patch notes for you.
The new Import/Export DLC is now available for GTA 5 Online players on all platforms. This new update revolves around fast cars and trading them. There are various new luxury cars waiting for you in this update. As a CEO, you can buy a new warehouse where you can store, repair, and modify the stolen cars. We’re showing you what new things there are to discover in this huge DLC for GTA 5 Online.

In Import/Export, you earn a lot of money by stealing luxury cars and reselling them. To do this, you need to buy a warehouse that can hold up to 60 cars. Through the CEO office, you can accept missions to steal luxury cars and then head to these cars.
There are various options from simple car theft to exciting police chases. Because they are also not satisfied with how you earn your money this time.
However, during the missions, you need to be careful not to damage the cars too much. Before you can sell the cars, your personal mechanic has to repair them, which costs you money. This way, you make less profit if you want to resell the cars.
You can resell the cars through the AD-Hawk Autos program. You can access it via the PC in your car warehouse. There are always a few buyers there who want your cars. Some, however, want these cars specially tuned, so you have to invest more money in the car before you can collect the commission. You can decide for yourself which interested parties you want to sell the cars to.
Watch out for competition!
When selling the cars, you should be careful not to take too many risks. In a lobby with other players and biker clubs, it can quickly happen that someone messes up your plans. To make the sale worthwhile, you should cause as little damage as possible to the vehicle. With competition in your lobby, it can quickly become a bad deal if they damage your vehicles.
If you’ve stolen a few vehicles, you’ll unlock special missions. If you successfully complete these co-op missions, you have the chance to buy these special vehicles. There will be a special SecuroServ price for you. Owning special vehicles also unlocks new VIP work.
GTA 5 Online: Import/Export Vehicles and Special Vehicles
This update brings 8 special vehicles into the game, with which you can cause chaos in the online world of GTA 5. The special vehicles are:
BF Ramp Buggy
JoBuilt Phantom Edge
Karin Technical Aqua
Nagasaki Blazer Aqua
Brute Armored Boxville
MTL Wastelander
Imponte Ruiner 2000
Coil Rocket Voltic
Additionally, there are 2 new supercars. The Pegassi Tempesta for 1,329,000 GTA$ and the Ocelot Penetrator for 880,000 GTA$
Additionally, at Benny’s Garage, you now also have the Principe Diablous Custom available for 169,000 GTA$ and Annis Elegy Retro Custom as vehicles.
GTA 5 Online Character Customization
Additionally, you can now change the appearance of your character in GTA 5 Online. Until now, one could change clothing, tattoos, and hair. Now Rockstar is taking a step further and allows you to tweak not only your cars but also your body on the go.
The update 2.5.0 with version 1.30 is available for download for Destiny. Here are the patch notes.
Now nothing stands in the way of the Dawning. The preparatory update 2.5.0 is here. Once it is installed, you can start the winter event, which brings numerous new features.
It has been known for a few days now that the update 2.5.0 reworks the skeleton keys. You will receive more of them and even a guaranteed key per week. Here are the complete patch notes.
Patch Notes Update 2.5.0
Many of the changes are already known, which you can read about in the links provided above. Particularly exciting highlights from the patch notes:
Amanda Holliday, Eva Levante, and Zavala have quests for you.
Your SRL rank is back to 0.
The SIVA Crisis Strike playlist (normal and heroic) now has all strikes that are available on your platform.
You will take less damage from burning. The burning damage you inflict remains unchanged.

It has now been officially confirmed that For Honor requires an internet connection at all times.
Recently, rumors circulated that the highly anticipated melee game For Honor would have an online requirement. This was revealed by a preliminary cover that circulated online.
Now, the confirmation from Ubisoft’s community representative UbiJurassic: He states that For Honor is a purely online experience. Players must be connected to the internet at all times. Even in the single-player campaign, there are “elements of progression that are hosted online.”
GameSpot reports that they also received direct confirmation from Ubisoft that an internet connection must be permanently available. In short: If there are server issues, the game cannot be played – it does not run offline.
For Honor will be released on February 14, 2017, for PS4, Xbox One, and PC.
The communication of the developers of World of Warcraft with the fans is going wrong. The community manager agrees.
Blizzard has been trying in recent months to stay in touch with the community to keep them updated on new changes and plans. This is at least the case in Hearthstone, Overwatch, and Heroes of the Storm. Meanwhile, feedback threads are piling up in the WoW forum by the hundreds, while there are rarely any responses from the developers.
This leads to considerable frustration among fans. The player Haveth expressed his dissatisfaction with Blizzard’s behavior in the forum and listed several criticisms regarding various channels – such as Twitter, Reddit, the forums, streams, etc. Community Manager “Lore” (Josh Allen) has responded to most of the points.
Weeks of feedback – often unheard, fans think.
Another criticism was the “Q&A” stream last week. Many viewers were disappointed, as a large number of the questions had already been answered beforehand at BlizzCon. Here, “Lore” defends himself by saying that the questions are still frequently asked – because not all fans follow BlizzCon. As long as questions frequently arise, they want to discuss them in the Q&A sessions.
“Regarding the forums, I completely agree with you. Our presence in the forums is terrible. It is a big problem, and we are working on a solution. This is part of the reason why I am here, posting this, and will continue to be as present as possible. Fixing this problem is going to take some time – if it can even be completely fixed – but we are working on it.”
One of the main reasons is that developers often simply do not have the time to write much in the forums. Especially during the “hot phases” of development, they need all hands on deck for creating new content. When developers do come to the forum, they tend to absorb all feedback rather than answering threads.
“The community team (including me) needs to fill this gap in a way that you don’t think, “Oh, a Blue Post! Oh, damn, it’s just a community manager.” We haven’t succeeded in that so far, but we will.”
It remains to be seen whether the WoW team will succeed in that.

The big December update of Battlefield 1 activates the new Giant’s Shadow map. Additionally, there are balancing changes to weapons and new features. We summarize the patch notes in German.
As of today, you can download the new Patch X for Battlefield 1. The big December update brings several changes to the game. For example, there is a new spectator mode, a new map, and some bug fixes. Among other things, the exit button has also been fixed. We will show you what changes and fixes are included in this update.
This update includes a new multiplayer map in Battlefield 1, where you can showcase your skills. In the gameplay video of Giant’s Shadow, you can gather many impressions of the map. If you have a premium pass or a preorder version of Battlefield 1, you can play the new map starting today. The linked gameplay video also shows the new grenade launcher crossbow, which is activated in the game through this update.
Spectator Mode in Battlefield 1
In spectator mode, you can watch a Battlefield 1 battle. You can navigate the map or watch other players directly from the first-person perspective. There is also a bird’s-eye view that shows the entire map from above.
The free-moving camera is also intended to help players who like to create gameplay videos. The developers took a lot of feedback from the spectator modes of older games and catered to the community’s wishes in the new spectator mode.
New Server Setting “Standard Issue Rifles” in Battlefield 1
With this server setting, you can specify that players can only use their faction’s standard weapon. If you play as the British, you only have access to the SMLE MKIII. The Standard Issue Rifles “Sir” setting can be activated or deactivated in custom games with various other settings.
Changes to Movement and Aim Assist for Soldiers
With these changes, the developers aim to enable better movement for soldiers. Many mechanics and bugs have been fixed. Among other things, it is now possible to sprint directly from the crouched or prone position.
When playing with a controller, the player must now actively aim to receive aim assist. Previously, it was possible in certain situations for aim assist to activate just by passing by an opponent.
Vehicle Changes in the December Update
The landship has been balanced more for team play. You can now use the Mark 5 tank as a mobile spawn point to re-enter the game. This way, the vehicle should always have enough crew members and is thus more effective on the battlefield.
Additionally, the armor of this vehicle has been increased to match that of the heavy tank.
An exploit has been fixed for airplanes, which made it possible to destroy other airplanes with a single shot. Fighter planes now inflict slightly more damage with their MGs, and bombers take more damage from MGs.
Additionally, the damage from the rear gunners of an airplane has been slightly reduced. This should make it harder to switch to that position while flying and quickly destroy pursuers. While it is still possible, it is now more difficult to execute.
Weapon Balancing in the December Update
Certain shotguns were dealing too much damage and have therefore been nerfed. The Model 10-A was too powerful, as it could kill a target with full health at long range (for shotguns). As a result, the one-shot range of the Model 10-A, M97 Trench Gun, and the sawed-off shotgun has been reduced.
Light Machine Guns have been buffed and now experience less accuracy loss with the second shot.
Mortars are now more accurate after they were made too inaccurate in the last update. However, the damage has not changed. Additionally, the hardcore mode now features the map for aiming with mortars, but without a target indicator.
Syringes now have a cooldown! This is intended to prevent medics from reviving many players in a short time. This cooldown does not apply when a weapon crate is nearby. Therefore, a medic can still revive mass amounts of players quickly with the help of a supporter.
First aid kits and ammunition crates are more effective: They now heal more and provide more ammunition before disappearing. Additionally, it should now be less frequent that you are unable to deploy ammunition crates and first aid kits. If you are in front of an obstacle, they will now be placed directly at your feet.
Changes to the Hardcore Mode
For hardcore players, there will be another map. However, there will be no objectives or players displayed on it. Additionally, damage on hardcore servers has been significantly reduced. Instead of 200% damage, you will now only deal 125% damage compared to normal servers.
There will also be kill confirmations – but only for killing a teammate. Killing an enemy remains hidden.
Improvements in Stability of Battlefield 1
There were also some technical changes in the December update of Battlefield 1, such as fixing the graphics bug with dynamic resolution. More about the bugs and problems with lags.
Exit button is working again! Erik Ortman from DICE confirmed on Twitter that the exit button is functioning again. This change is missing from the list of patch notes.

Our author Jürgen laments his fate: He likes online games that no one else likes. He is a kind of “anti-Midas.” What he loves does not turn to gold. What he loves dies.
Anyone who has eagerly followed my articles knows that I have a certain preference for games that are not necessarily blessed with great success. Games that do not receive much interest within the gamer community. It’s really a shame, because you’re missing out on some real gems that I want to introduce to you here.
A heart for games: Jürgen likes outsiders and underdogs
Awww.
I have a preference for games that appeal to few other players apart from myself or that only generate limited interest on our site here. Because even if some games like Blade & Soul (still) have quite a few players, that particular game only ranks as a niche topic here, generating hardly any clicks. Other games have massive problems with their player base and are on the brink of irrelevance.
I have a heart for such endangered species. Therefore, I want to introduce my five favorite games that, in my opinion, deserve more attention and love. And who knows, maybe I can win a few additional players for my little favorites.
Atlas Reactor
Atlas Reactor is an unusual game, as Trion’s colorful cyberpunk fun is a turn-based arena brawler! That’s right, in Atlas Reactor you play quick fights in a limited area. But while games like Battlerite or Overwatch focus on fast real-time action, everything in Atlas Reactor is turn-based.
Round strategy, but hard!
To ensure that the action doesn’t become too sparse, you need to plan your actions within just 20 seconds each round. In this short time, you have to consider both your own action as well as those of your friends and enemies and create something tactically meaningful. Sometimes that works better than at other times, resulting in spectacular multi-kills. Other times, however, you might waste a carefully prepared ultimate attack uselessly because the opponent left first!
The skills in Atlas Reactor are assigned to each phase, and depending on where they occur in the turn order, certain actions can go awry or be particularly effective. For example, you can always perform evasive maneuvers before the attack phase, but before the dodge phase, there is still a phase where you can execute roots, snares, or debuffs.
So, if you rely too confidently on your escape ability, you might be thwarted by a cunning opponent beforehand and even with your dodge skill, you won’t get back onto the fire area of your enemy. This makes every round in Atlas Reactor an adrenaline festival and at the same time tactically demanding. Only those who master their skills optimally and quickly recognize enemy plans can play their hero optimally and help their team to victory.
Suitcase hunt with mutants and cyberpunks
Currently, there are two game modes. In the first, you fight in a kind of team deathmatch to achieve five kills first. Game mode number two is based on the fun trailer of the game and is about recovering a suitcase and holding it long enough until the escape point opens. Whoever manages to bring the box to safety there wins.
Both modes are a lot of fun and after each fight we earn experience points for our heroes and the player account. This allows us to unlock more skins and emotes. The available heroes are all playable from the start when we buy the full version of Atlas Reactor. Alternatively, there is also a kind of unlimited demo in which you can only play a handful of heroes.
https://youtu.be/13E07c5hfIQ
The available heroes are divided into damage dealers, tanks, and supporters, and are all quite quirky. There is a robo-dog, a crazy toy, a mutant and a fishman who throws around silly puns. The complex story of the game is told in episodes that you gradually unlock with quests and daily missions in battle.
Why you should play more Atlas Reactor
Atlas Reactor is a well-thought-out and exciting game that is quite difficult to learn, but after a few rounds, the turn-based action should be sitting well enough for you to achieve initial successes. Since the trial version is free to play, every fan of fast action should take a look at Atlas Reactor. A detailed description of Atlas Reactor can be found at the provided link.
Update: 19:06. No update in sight on PS4. A Guardian reports on reddit that it is already available on Xbox One. 1.89 GB.
Update: 19:08: Bungie has just announced that the update will be coming soon.
Update: 19:13: Reddit is going wild, as the update is still not live.
Today, the Winter event “The Dawning” starts. However, you cannot immediately hop on the Sparrow and race, but must first download and install an update titled 2.5.0.
No maintenance work or server downtime is required for this. Once you have installed the patch, the festivities can begin. Here are the important times:
At 7 PM, update 1.5 goes live on PS4 and Xbox One. Once it is ready for download, you will be brought back to the login screen on PS4 and can install it. On Xbox One, you can restart Destiny or wait for the game to bring you back to the login screen at a later time.
At 11 PM, all Guardians who have not installed the update will be removed from their activities. You will need to download it now.
The full patch notes will be released later tonight, but Bungie has already provided a preview of update 2.5.0 last week:
Skeleton Key: You are guaranteed to receive a skeleton key when you complete the Nightfall Strike once during the week. There is one per account for the first completion of the Nightfall per week. Additionally, the drop chance for a key in the SIVA crisis playlists (heroic and normal) as well as in the Nightfall Strike is slightly increased.
Green Engrams: Once you reach level 40, green engrams will be immediately and automatically converted into weapon parts or armor materials.
Brother Vance now offers a material exchange, passing coins for light particles.
Legendary weapons from the Weapon Master Rank 2 Quest can now be purchased again from the Weapon Master. So if you have dismantled Stillpiercer, Immobius, or Susanoo, you can now get them back.
A problem will be resolved where Guardians did not receive the trophy/achievement “Student of History” or the badge “Seal of the Wolf”.
The creators of Evolve and Left4Dead have a new project – and a new employer.
When looking at the history of various developer studios, few have experienced such emotional roller coasters as Turtle Rock. After the outstanding zombie shooter Left4Dead, which in the eyes of many fans was “ahead of its time”, the IP was acquired by Valve. A similar fate awaited Evolve, which received good reviews but fell short of expectations due to poor PR and some issues – even Free2Play couldn’t save the game. The IP Evolve was also taken away from the studio and the rights now lie with 2K.
But Turtle Rock Studios is not at the end. As was announced now, the developer team consisting of nearly 70 people is now working for the publisher Perfect World (Neverwinter, Star Trek Online).
In an interview with GamesIndustry, the studio explained:
“We are developing a new franchise that takes place in a completely new universe and is driven by the gameplay that our community loves and expects from Turtle Rock. We are focusing on what we do best – exciting co-op FPS action.”
However, the new project is neither to be a zombie scenario (Left4Dead) nor another post-apocalyptic scenario (Evolve).
“What we can say is that there will be a strong ‘Dark Fantasy’ element.”
Although it wasn’t explicitly mentioned, under the auspices of Perfect World, it’s likely that the new co-op shooter will be a Free2Play title. After all, the game is set to be released in 2018.
In the coming months, Turtle Rock plans to further expand the team and reach approximately 100 employees. In the future, they want to work on multiple projects instead of having just “one iron in the fire”.
Cortyn says: To be honest, this is one of the nicer “last reports” from 2016 for me. I had feared that after the Evolve fiasco, Turtle Rock would be in a bad spot. That they are now working with the same enthusiasm on a new project, which is also set in a dark fantasy setting, makes me smile in satisfaction. Ultimately, I just hope that the developers won’t have their IP taken away from them again later, even though that is legally absolutely legitimate. Nevertheless, I can imagine such a situation being quite unpleasant.
The new GTA 5 Online update Import/Export may cause online issues. Currently, the game servers for all platforms are unavailable! Gta 5 Online is offline.
Just a few minutes ago, the major Import/Export DLC for GTA 5 Online became available. This DLC brings many new features and vehicles to the online world of GTA 5. Apparently, this update is so popular among players that it is now causing server issues. All platforms are struggling with login problems. As a result, players cannot download the patch.
So far, there is no official information about what is causing the server problems. It is possible that the servers cannot handle the high player influx. However, it is also possible that the servers are facing a DDoS attack.
As soon as we have new information about this, we will update this article.
Heroes of the Storm features not only disgusting Zergs and rotting Undead but also some attractive heroes. But which character is the hottest? Who overshadows all others in terms of sexiness? An app found the answer!
“Applein, Applein on the wall, who is the prettiest hero in HotS land?” Well, that silly spell is not really necessary to crown the hottest character in Heroes of the Storm. Instead, it requires a special function provided by the dating app BlinQ. This utilizes facial recognition and an algorithm that calculates the attractiveness of a face based on numerous factors.
Sonya is not a human!
This all works quite well with real faces in photos, but what about fictional heroes and their portraits? A few jokesters on Reddit wanted to know once and for all whether the tough Russian Zarya outshines the equally cool Crusader Johanna? Or whether the dapper King Wrynn must capitulate to the rugged charm of Jim Raynor. Therefore, they uploaded all the portraits of the heroes from Heroes of the Storm to the dating app.
Unfortunately, the app often didn’t recognize a face at all. This was not surprising for disgusting slime creatures like the Zerg Abathur, as its multiple bug eyes and venom-dripping mandibles are not exactly features of human anatomy. But why the Barbarian Sonya was not recognized is truly a shame! Or is she also a Zerg? Who knows…
Diablo’s Breasts or just the dead fish?
For other characters, the app recognized a face that wasn’t one at all. For example, Diablo’s chest, which is 23 years old, male (lol), and clearly “hot.” It got even weirder with the baby Murloc Murky, who has a dead fish as a weapon. And now guess whose face as a 30-year-old woman was granted the label “Hot”? That makes the fish just as hot as the sexy sniper Nova!

In The Division, we look at an efficient farming method that allows solo agents to quickly get loot after 1.5.
Since updates 1.4 and 1.5, no one can complain about not enough loot. Every enemy can now drop relevant items. You earn numerous objects through every activity that you can use to optimize your builds.
Some agents might still say: “That’s still not fast enough for me. What method gets me loot in the most efficient way?”
The YouTuber MarcoStyle has addressed this question and is now introducing a farming method that he believes is the best – and suitable for solo agents. No glitches or exploits are used, like with the “new” Bullet King:

This method needs to be prepared first, but it is feasible for agents who are running around without optimized builds.
Preparation:
You need four parts of the AlphaBridge set and knee pads with the Accomplished talent, which gives you more rewards through commendations. You should also look for increased XP gain per kill on your armor (or mods) with low attributes.
Otherwise, you need to increase damage using firearms and, for example, damage against elites. Now choose two snipers with talents that provide damage bonuses and these two talents:
Talent: Headshot kills with this weapon increase resources for your skills by 5%
Challenging: Every elimination achieved with an active skill extends its duration by 5 to 20%
For skills, choose the Mobile Cover with Countermeasures and First Aid with the Stimulant.
And here’s how it works:
Start the story mission “Lincoln Tunnel.” Choose World Tier 5 and the difficulty “Challenging.” Fight your way to the tunnel entrance until the JTF NPC starts defusing the bomb.
Position yourself with Mobile Cover near the tunnel entrance. This is where the farming spot begins, and you perform the method again and again:
Activate the individual skill “Tactical Link” and the Stimulant and take out the approaching enemies as precisely as possible with headshots. Thanks to the preparation, Tactical Link is almost always available.
Once the bomb is defused, no new enemies will spawn. Let yourself be killed and restart this section: Eliminate the enemies approaching the tunnel over and over.
The enemies you defeat drop many items. However, the special thing about this method is: You gain massive experience points and thus sealed containers containing objects and Phoenix Credits. Headshot kills provide extra XP, so you can proceed even more efficiently if you’re more precise with your shots.
By the way: There is an ammo box in the tunnel to prevent running out of bullets too quickly.
Are you going to check this farming method out for yourself, or is it too complicated for you?

The Early Access of the Diablo MMO Guardians of Ember has started and allows you to take your first steps in the fantasy world.
Those who supported the developers of the Hack’n Slay meets MMORPG Guardians of Ember through the crowdfunding campaign were able to play as early as yesterday. For backers of the Indiegogo campaign, the head start began earlier. However, at 9 AM this morning, the Early Access officially started, which anyone can join by purchasing either the Mortal or the Immortal Edition of the game.
It should be noted that this is still an early version in which not all content has been integrated and where bugs and balancing issues may still occur. If you want to take a look at the MMO, you can do so. On Steam, both packages are currently available at a discount.
A first glimpse into the game
Guardians of Ember transports you to the fantasy world of Olyndale. This world is on the brink of chaos after years of war. Only the Order of the Guardians of Ember can restore order by finding the magical Ember stones. You are one such Guardian and set out on a quest. Along the way, you must fight monsters, team up with other players, complete quests, and craft special equipment. In a PvP arena, you will also face other players to find out who the mightiest Guardian of the world Olyndale is.
Guardians of Ember aims to be a mix between MMORPG and Diablo, offering you over 60 randomly generated dungeons and a housing system that allows you to build your own home and decorate it as you wish. Farming and fishing are also possible. You can customize your hero from five classes and 300 skills, with the option to choose another class at level 15.

The new GTA 5 Online DLC Import/Export is now available on the PS4, PC, and Xbox One platforms. You can now download the update.
For the first platforms, the Import/Export DLC for GTA 5 Online has already been released. The DLC revolves around new cars and the illegal trade of them. You have garages with up to 60 spaces for the new vehicles. The DLC is currently being released for the various platforms. While the update was first available for Xbox One and PS4, PC players can now also download it.
The Import/Export DLC is about 1.5 GB on Xbox One. A similar patch size is also available on the other platforms PC and PS4.
GTA 5 Online: Import/Export Vehicle Prices
In the new DLC, you can use your CEO experiences to your advantage. This time, it’s not about weapon deliveries or gemstones, but luxury cars that your business revolves around. Buy expansions for your CEO properties to make room for the new car collection.
The update has only been available for a few minutes and there are no further details or patch notes from Rockstar Games regarding this DLC yet.
However, there are the first images from the game showing how expensive some of the new vehicles are. We provide here a summary of the current screenshots of the Import/Export DLC for GTA 5 Online:
For most WoW players, Mythic+15 is where it ends. However, some guilds even manage Mythic+20 and still stay within the time limit.
If you want to tackle the toughest challenges in World of Warcraft: Legion, but can’t gather enough players for raids, you take on the “Mythic+” dungeons. In addition to a tight time limit, the instances become increasingly difficult. While a “Mythic+2” dungeon only means slightly more health points and damage taken, further problems arise with increasing levels.
At each difficulty level above 15, it is usually agreed that the time limit is ignored and only an attempt is made to complete the instance at all – after all, there is still a reward for that. But for professionals, that is certainly not enough, so they even manage to complete this tough challenge within the time limit.
A group of players from the guilds Serenity and FatSharkYes has faced the Darkheart Thicket. You can admire how “relaxed” the run was in the following video:

It should be noted that the combination of the 3 properties Bloody (small puddles that heal enemies and damage players), Volcanic (magma explosions beneath ranged attackers), and Fortified (20% more health and 40% more damage for trash mobs) is relatively favorable. With different attributes, the run would probably not have been successful. Nevertheless, completing it within the time limit is quite an achievement that seems to be unique so far.
Aside from the pure experience and enjoyment of it, a key stone of such high level is not really worth it. The gear from the reward chests stops scaling many levels earlier.
How far have you pushed your key stones, and what was the highest level you completed within the time limit?
Since 7 PM, the Update 2.5.0 will be available for download. Once it is installed, “The Dawning” can begin.
Additionally, today, like every Tuesday, the weekly reset occurs. Fresh activities will be available from 10 AM. This time, however, there is a special case with the Nightfall strike.
Nightfall and Honeydew on 13.12. on PS4 and Xbox One
The Nightfall will be updated at 10 AM, but it will not be available on PS4 and Xbox One for several hours. Only when Update 2.5.0 is installed can you start the Nightfall. Until then, you will be left with the Honeydew error code if you try to enter this activity.
This week, the Dust Palace Nightfall strike. Since Update 2.5.0, the Nexus is the Nightfall! These are the modifiers:
Epic
Blinder: Damage from Guardian melee attacks is increased.
Grounded: You take more damage while airborne.
Fresh Troops: Some enemies have reinforcements.
Armored: More enemies have shields.
In the Heroic SIVA Crisis Strike playlist, Heroic, Arc Burn, Juggler, and Catapult are active.
The “Iron Lord” artifacts this week
Tyra Karn has a fresh artifact selection for you every week. If you possess all 8 “Iron Lord” artifacts, a trophy/achievement will be unlocked, which has previously been bugged. Update 2.5.0 is supposed to fix this issue. This week you can choose between:
There are new Pokémon in Pokémon GO. We show you which eggs the Pokémon from the 2nd generation can hatch from.
Since yesterday, there is the possibility to obtain new Pokémon in the augmented reality game Pokémon GO. These monsters belong to the 2nd generation and can be hatched by trainers. In a video, Niantic introduced the new Pokémon. The baby Pokémon hatch from the various eggs available in Pokémon GO. We show you which monsters you can get from the eggs for 2KM, 5KM, and 10KM.
Pokémon GO: Eggs and Incubators
You get the eggs from various PokéStops. There, in addition to the usual loot like potions or Poké Balls, you also randomly receive eggs to hatch as rewards.
You can buy incubators in the Pokémon GO shop. You have one incubator with unlimited uses, but with additional incubators, you can hatch multiple eggs at the same time.
Pokémon GO: Egg List 2nd Generation Baby Pokémon
So far, there are 7 baby Pokémon confirmed by trainers in Pokémon GO. These are Pichu, Togepi, Magby, Elekid, Fluffeluff, Pii, and Kussilla. The confirmation for the 8th baby Pokémon Rabauz, which is part of the 2nd generation, is still missing.
Trainers have already discovered that the new Pokémon do not hatch from the same eggs. So far, there is no official confirmation from Niantic, only reports from various trainers. For your convenience, we have created an egg list for the 2nd generation.
To hatch a Pokémon egg, tap the PokéBall in Pokémon GO to open the menu. Then tap on “Pokémon” and select “Eggs” at the top right. After that, you can choose which Pokémon egg you want to hatch.
It is not guaranteed that only the new Pokémon will come from the eggs now. It can still happen that you get a boring Caterpie or other Pokémon from the eggs.
Catch Christmas Pikachu

You have until the end of this month to catch a Christmas Pikachu. This little Pokémon wears a Christmas hat in the game and is also represented that way on the tracker. As Niantic reveals, you have until December 29 to catch this special Christmas sprite in Pokémon GO.
If you then evolve your Christmas Pikachu into Raichu, it will even keep its hat.
With the upcoming patch for Overwatch, not only is the Christmas event coming along with the changes to Symmetra, but also a lot of minor details. To breathe more life into the characters and gradually embellish their story, there are a number of new voicelines that were recently added to the PTR.
Most of the lines are relatively insignificant and add some new character interactions. Thus far, there has been complete silence between some heroes.

Other lines, however, like those from D.Va, reference significant events. Korea has been attacked again and again by a giant Omnic and has been largely devastated. The sight of Oasis gives D.Va hope that there will someday be a fresh start in her country.

It is also interesting that Winston apparently knows the identity of Soldier: 76 (Jack Morrison), which raises new questions about Overwatch and its continuation.
A list of all new interactions can be found in our sources.
As soon as there are concrete details about the Christmas patch, you will of course find out from us.
Today, on 12/13/2016, there will be server downtime on all Battlefield 1 platforms (PS4, Xbox One, PC). We will let you know when the platforms will be unavailable.

Battlefield 1 Xbox One downtime on 12/13: The Xbox One servers will be offline from 1:00 PM for about one hour.
The servers may be offline for slightly longer or shorter than one hour. It’s best to expect that the servers will be offline for at least 1 hour.
Battlefield 1 December Update Patch Notes 12/13
The exact patch notes will be released by the developers after the update has been applied. However, we can expect weapon balancing and new features. As the developers confirm on Twitter, the new spectator mode comes with the update in Battlefield. In the stream for this update, there was already a preview of what this feature looks like in the game and what you can do with it.
